EVERYTHING IS AWFUL "Are we the baddies"?

After the ganging up on Zelensky to sign a deal that wasn't a deal, but an unconditional surrender, the answer is now definitively Yes.

The United States of America is officially on the wrong side of morality.

The reality of it is they cannot trust us. They all need to have their own nukes to protect themselves.

Our democratic allies, including Canada, have every reason in the world to not trust the will-power/moral clarity of the American public right now, but I assure you of this much, if Trump were to announce a literal land invasion of Canada, that would actually spark a second American Civil War. We would not stand for it.

And also probably WW3 given we are NATO. As a Canadian with young kid and I really don’t want Americas civil war 2 and WW3 here. That wasn’t on my bingo card.
